BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: There was a lot going on at the press conference for the boxing battle between KSI and Tommy Fury, scheduled to take place in Manchester, England, in October.
Logan Paul's opponent in the co-main event, Dillon Danis, wasted no time in making fun of him. Even Paul's fiancée, Nina Agdal, was brought up in the chat. Tommy's father, John Fury, also lost control and flipped over conference tables.
At this point, Paul and Danis got into a fight, and the WWE star even threw a cake at the Bellator fighter. However, Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji, popularly known as KSI, once made a one-liner comment about WWE star John Cena.
Tristan Tate, the younger brother of well-known social media personality Andrew Tate, however, didn't miss the chance to mock the YouTuber over the John Cena comment.
What comment did KSI make about John Cena?
KSI used the poetic style made popular by boxers like Muhammad Ali and Conor McGregor, as well as WWE athletes like Dwayne Johnson, Ric Flair, and others. On the other hand, KSI's attempt seems to have ended in failure.
KSI stated in his statement, “I’m the one that can see John Cena. I’m the one that knows Victoria’s Secret. And I’m the one that knows what the dog is doing. When I go into a gym, treadmills do pushups.”
The former YouTuber, now a boxer, was poking fun at WWE icon John Cena, joking about his invisibility. On the flip side, Tristan Tate didn't appear to appreciate it. Tate responded by likening KSI to a toned-down Ric Flair, “When you order Ric Flair from http://wish.com."
As soon as Tate tweeted his reaction, his followers started commenting their take. A user said, "Lmao He’s so cringe no wonder why he come out as gay."
Another user added, "Nah, he's more like the Wish version of Booker T. If you put Booker T and Sycho Sid in the dryer for a couple of hours, and take out all of their charisma, you get KSI and Logan Paul."
A third user said, "Instead of Wohoooo! He'd say Bohoooo! KSI is Sickening!"
KSI warns Tommy Fury to end his career
KSI speaks to the media ahead of his upcoming boxing match against Tommy Fury, discussing his move to a higher level of competition and the potential impact on his career.
KSI said, “For real bro, I’m ready. I’m ready. This brother thinks I’m going to be easy. He thinks I’m going to be easier than Jake Paul. I’m not Jake Paul, man. I hit harder, I move faster, I’m just a different entity. I’m a different guy."
He went on to say, “When I do what I do to Tommy, at that point I’m the one that holds all the cards. I’ll decide what I want to do because, trust me, I’m putting myself through hell in this camp. Every single day, twice a day, man. No breaks, just going through hell. But after I do what I do, we’ll see."
He continued, "Tommy should never fight again (when he loses). Tommy should never fight again, that should be it. No, honestly. He’s saying that I’m light work, I’m a ‘YouTuber,’ he’s gonna show what a real boxer can do. Okay, then. So when a ‘YouTuber’ knocks you out, then what? That’s gonna be a little embarrassing.”
“It’d be pretty high up there, if I’m being honest. I’m working hard for it. I’ve put a lot of sweat, blood, and tears into this and, yeah, it’s legacy. It’s what it’s all about. Obviously he knows where the money’s at. He’s this parasite that has found his way into the scene, and once I eradicate him, then what? It’s done. It’s over. And at that point I’ll decide what, or who, I want to fight next — if I want to fight again,” KSI concluded.
